Changes since our inception review: - We've completed our SMF design for persistent state storage, which calls for extensions to sharectl(1M) to manage global settings. - We've backed off from our original design for multi-user mounts due to schedule pressure and a better understanding of all the changes needed to implement the design. Our design now calls for: - a 1:1 relationship between an authenticated connection and a mount - new mounting rules to permit a user to do personal mounts. We want to go later to multi-user mounts, where each user has a distinct, authenticated connection shared by different mounts. - We've learned a lot about authentication and updated the design document with that. - We've tossed our prior implementation of MD4 in favor of PSARC 2007/139. - We've dropped plans to deliver any MS-RPC support, since we don't need it for a first release; that permits unified MS-RPC support to be done later with awareness of client and server codebases.
